Good thing they have money…
How dense is Steve Ballmer:
“My children–in many dimensions they’re as poorly behaved as many other children, but at least on this dimension I’ve got my kids brainwashed: You don’t use Google, and you don’t use an iPod,”
So they don’t use the best search engine on the planet, and the don’t use the best portable media player on the planet.
Way to be, Stevey.

Yeah — that cracked me up too. It’s so typical of the Gates/Ballmer mindset. Kids are the best indicator of “cool”. If your kids don’t want to use your product, chances are thousands of other kids don’t want to use it either. So by forcing your own kids to use your product, now you have 2 or 3 new customers. But if you cared to innovate instead, you might have thousands more.
